Social Sciences (HBA)

Banner

Whether you are considering law school, teaching, banking, government, consulting, or working for an international aid agency, the Social Sciences provide an excellent foundation through examination of the relationships between the individual, society and the environment. As a Social Sciences student, you might consider issues such as health care resourcing in Economics; study how decisions regarding health care are made by governments in Political Science; examine how cultural practices meaningfully impact the everyday political, social, economic and linguistic worlds of people across the globe in Anthropology; or study how cities are designed to improve accessibility, inclusivity and sustainability in Geography.

"What I learned from my first few years in university is that I enjoy learning about humans through different lenses. Through my academic programs, I can see the evolution of humans and how our society and culture has changed over the years. I am so happy to have this renewed passion and enthusiasm for my studies."
- Erika, 4th year, Major in English, Minor in French Studies, Minor in Anthropology
